    1. You're welcome. Your page is truly awesome. 'I love comic covers' is dedicated exclusively to homages, remakes, recolorings... otherwise my task would be as hard as that of Sisyphus :D However, if the foreign cover doesn't use the original drawing but a new one, I would be interested.

  2. Cool man, I love the foreign ROM post! A huge amount of foreign covers altered color or re-imagined the original art! Check out this thread where I discuss some altered foreign covers where I think they might be better than the original. Id love to help you do a (foreign cover analysis type post) and maybe we could cross promote both sites?

    Check out the thread here....

    1. Interesting thread you got there. As I mentioned in the last comment, I'm mostly interested in cover homages and remakes or, in other words, different drawings, not the same illustration with different logos or indicia, But, as I said before, I would be interested if the foreign cover uses a new drawing.

    2. Oh ok now I am clear... this is what you want! Vertice is a Spanish publisher that im sure you already know well being in Spain! Have you highlighted lots of their work?
